It's week two of my Pride 2025 Feature and this week I'm so excited to get to hang out with two of my favorite people in comics and returning guests, Josh Trujillo and GLAAD Nominated Jude Doyle. Josh and Jude have multiple projects in the new DC Pride Special, now in it's fifth year, including one developing new DC trans character Ethan Rivera.

I've already picked it up and found this new formatting where there's a common narrative thread that connects all the stories incredibly powerful. We also get to talk about one of my new favorite characters the snarky Blue Snowman and how things are looking representationally with queer characters and creators in the medium.

DC PRIDE SPECIAL 2025

From the publisher

DC Pride 2025 brings DC’s heroes together when a century-old tavern, the center of queer life in Gotham City, unexpectedly announces its imminent closure. It’s a huge loss to the community, and generations of patrons return to pay respects to a space they’ve endowed with entire lifetimes of memories, wishes and dreams—including Alan Scott, the Green Lantern. Alan returns, for one last time, to the place he fell for his first love, Johnny Ladd, to touch the wall on which they carved the symbol of their love, to remember the days before everything went to hell for them...and to say goodbye.

But love is a kind of magic, and, in Alan’s experience, magic can take on a life of its own. Before anyone knows it’s happening, heroes, villains, and civilians alike from across the DCU with powerful ties to this mysterious place—the Question, Midnighter and Apollo, Harley Quinn, Green Lantern Jo Mullein, Bunker, Connor Hawke, and Blue Snowman among them—find themselves spirited away to strange, alternate worlds where everything they ever thought they wanted can be theirs…but at what cost?
